Join the Team!

We are a passionate group of individuals from a broad range of interesting places, striving to positively impact the fire safety engineering profession globally. 

Our group is always looking for new lab members from diverse backgrounds. If you are interesting in burning things (for science), please do not hesitate to reach out. We have several funded opportunities for URAs, Co-ops, MASc and PhD students. Some opportunities are listed below:

• Deflagration Risk in BESS Enclosures

• In-situ Quantification of Emissions During Safety Venting

• External Flaming From Mass Timber Compartments

If you are interesting in applying for the above projects (or other potential research areas), please send a copy of your CV and a short statement of research motivation to vinny.gupta@uwaterloo.ca. Please include UW Fire Lab MASc/PhD/Co-op/URA in the subject title. 

We do not currently have funding for Postdocs, but I am happy to support fellowship applications for NSERC CPRA (Postdoctoral Research Fellowship) program.
